At what angle does a diffraction grating produce a second-order maximum for light having a first-order maximum at 20.0 degrees?

Answer:

At 43.2°.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the angle we need to use the following equation:

d*sin(\theta) = m\lambda

Where:

d: is the separation of the grating

m: is the order of the maximum

λ: is the wavelength

θ: is the angle              

At the first-order maximum (m=1) at 20.0 degrees we have:

\frac{\lambda}{d} = \frac{sin(\theta)}{m} = \frac{sin(20.0)}{1} = 0.342

Now, to produce a second-order maximum (m=2) the angle must be:

sin(\theta) = \frac{\lambda}{d}*m

\theta = arcsin(\frac{\lambda}{d}*m) = arcsin(0.342*2) = 43.2 ^{\circ}

Therefore, the diffraction grating will produce a second-order maximum for the light at 43.2°.    

I hope it helps you!

A student has a 2% salt water solution and a 7% salt water solution. To best imitate salt water at a local beach, he needs 1 lit
FromTheMoon [43]

Let

x-------> the amount of 2\% solution

y--------> the amount of 7\% solution

we know that

2\%=0.02\\7\%=0.07\\3.5\%=0.035

so

x+y=1

y=1-x -------> equation A

0.02x+0.07y=0.035 -------> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

0.02x+0.07(1-x)=0.035

0.02x+0.07-0.07x=0.035

0.05x=0.035

x=0.7\ liters

find the value of y

y=1-x

y=1-0.7=0.3\ liters

therefore

The student need 0.7\ liters of 2\% solution and 0.3\ liters of 7\% solution

<u>the answer is</u>

A) The percent values were written incorrectly in the equation

B) The amount of 7% solution should be written as 1 – x, not x – 1.

Verify if 1/2x-2 and g(x) = 2x + 4 are inverses
Triss [41]
They are inverses if f( (g(x)) = x

f((g(x)) =  (1/2) (2x + 4) - 2  = x + 2 - 2 = x

so this proves that g(x) is the inverse of f(x)

the other inverse g((f(x))  should also be = x
